COMMUNICATE SAFELY ONLINE:

You don't always know for sure who you're talking to when you're
on the internet, and every day online predators pretend to be
people they aren't. Here are some tips you can use to keep
yourself safe when communicating online
• Listen to your instincts: If someone makes you feel nervous or
uncomfortable by asking probing questions or trying to get
information out of you, stop communicating with them right
away.
• Limit what you share: Online predators often try to get you to share
personal information through emails or other messaging services.
Just like you wouldn't share personal information with a stranger on
the street, don't share information with strangers online, either.

• Keep your distance: Think twice about meeting someone in person


that you have only talked to online. Online predators often use social
media to pretend to be someone else by setting up fake
profiles.

CONTACTS AND CALENDAR

Most email providers offer an online calendar and address book that makes it
easy to stay organize and access your important information from anywhere.
CONTACT BASICS
Online contacts lists help you organize contact information for your friends, family,
and coworkers, just like an address book. Once people are added to your contacts
list, it's easy to access their information anytime and anywhere.

ADDING CONTACT: When you create a new contact, you should enter a first and
last name, as well as an email address. In most email accounts, the name and
email of anyone you correspond regularly with will be added to your contacts list
automatically.

SELECTING CONTACTS: Once you've added people to your contacts list,


remembering an email address is easy. Whenever you create a new email, you
can select the To or Add Recipients button.Then choose recipients from your
contacts list. The contacts' email addresses will be added automatically to the
message.
LINKING CONTACTS: If you already have a lot of contacts saved in another web-
based service, such as Facebook or LinkedIn, it's easy to link them between
accounts, which can save you a lot of time. For example, you could import your
Facebook contacts to your webmail service or use your existing contacts list to
search for friends on Facebook.

CONTACT GROUPS: If you frequently connect with the same group of people, you
can create contact groups for quick access. This allows you to quickly sort your
contacts by type. For example, you might use one group to organize your
personal contacts and another for professional contacts.
CALENDAR BASICS
Online calendars make it easy to schedule appointments, organize tasks,
and manage your time, just like a desk calendar. But unlike a physical
calendar, online calendars give you the freedom to quickly edit and
rearrange your schedule whenever you want. You'll even be able to
access your calendar on the go and sync it across multiple devices, like
your mobile phone and personal computer.

CREATING APPOINTMENTS: It's easy to schedule, track, and edit


upcoming appointments or events. When you create a new
appointment, you should include a title, start and end time, and location,
but you can also include other information, such as reminder
preferences, detailed notes, and more.
SWITCHING VIEWS: It's easy to schedule, track, and edit upcoming
appointments or events. When you create a new appointment, you
should (at the very least) include a title, start and end time, and
location, but you can also include other information, such as reminder
preferences, detailed notes, and more.
USING MULTIPLE CALENDAR: If you keep a lot of different appointments, you can
create multiple calendars to help organize your schedules. For example, you
might use one calendar to keep track of your personal tasks and company task.
Each calendar is assigned its own color, so it's easy to organize lots of different
appointments.

SHARING CALENDAR: You can share your calendar with anyone who uses the
same webmail provider. Once you've shared a calendar, you'll be able to view
and even edit a friend's calendar, depending on your sharing preferences.
EMAIL ETIQUETTE AND SAFETY
Like any form of online communication, it's important to practice good
etiquette and safety when using email. Etiquette is a set of rules and
guidelines that people use to communicate more effectively. You should also
know how to protect yourself from certain risks, like malware and phishing.

Tips for email success

Here are some basic rules you can follow to write better emails, no matter
who you're emailing.
EMAIL ATTACHMENT ETIQUETTE
Attachments are an easy way to share files, photos, and more, but many
people aren't aware of some of the most common attachment mistakes.
1. MENTION INCLUDED ATTACHMENT: Never attach a file without mentioning it
in the body of your email. Something as simple as "I've attached a few
photos to this email" will help your recipients know what to expect.

1. CONSIDER FILE SIZE AND FORMAT: Avoid sending excessively large


attachments or uncompressed photos, which can take a long time for your
recipients to download.use universal file types like .PDF, .RTF, and .JPG.
3. ONLY INCLUDE RELATED FILES: If you need to send a lot of different files to the
same person, consider sending the attachments through multiple emails. If you
include several unrelated files in the same email, it can be difficult for your
recipients to find the exact file they need.

4. SEPARATE YOUR PERSONAL AND WORK EMAIL: You should never use your work
email account for personal communication. It's best to get your own personal
account from a webmail service like Gmail, Yahoo!, or Outlook.com

SAFETY : Avoid sending sensitive informations such as credit card numbers, and
passwords
TIME SAVING EMAIL TIPS
Many email service provider have a variety of helpful time saving
features. These features are pretty easy to use, that can help you to
better organize your emails.
SELECTING MULTIPLE EMAILS: large number of emails you'd like to delete.
It would be fairly time consuming to go through and individually delete
each email. Luckily, most service provider have a feature that allows you
to select multiple emails.
These are usually in the form of check boxes next to each of your emails.
Once the emails are selected, you can then perform any action you
want, including deleting, sorting, and archiving.
CREATING GROUPS: If you find yourself sending emails to the same people on a
regular basis, it might be a good idea to create a group. Many Email service
provider allow you to select various email addresses and save them as a single
group. This way, you can simply select the group as the recipient instead of
having to select each individual address. This feature can usually be accessed
from the Contacts page of your email.
EMAIL FILTER: When you're receiving a lot of emails on a daily basis, it can be
difficult to keep them organized. Luckily, various email service provider offer a
feature called filters, which basically sort your emails into folders as you receive
them.You can create filters that sort your email by various characteristics,
including specific senders or recipients, keywords in the subject or body, and
attachments.
SOME COMPANIES EMAIL POLICIES

1. Keep it professional: never convey anger, use profanity,


or make racist.
2. Never share confidential information
3. Think before you send

• Using search engine
• UNDERSTANDING urls
• How to set up a wi-fi
Content network
• Configure your router
• Choosing a web browser
• INSTALLING AND UPDATING
plug-ins
• How to update a plug-in
FINDING THE WEBSITE
The web is full of websites, so how to find a website
becomes a question. Fortunately, there are tools built
specifically for finding websites.
● Use a Search Engines: This makes finding the web
very easy;most web browser like CHROME, FIREFOX
AND EDGE have search box built in.
● Browser A Web Directory: if you don’t know the
name of a website use a web directory.
PART OF A WEBSITE
There are different parts of a website;
THE HEADER: The header is responsible for showing visitors the
website’s company logo, the primary & secondary navigation
menus, and contact information. The header is normally at the
very top of the page.
THE HERO SECTION: A hero section is like the page header but is
strictly for homepages. Hero sections are used to help convey
your products and services to your visitors on your homepage.
A PAGE HEADER: A page header is a section below the main
header, and it typically states the page title to the visitor.
The content section: your content section is where all of your
page information goes. This is where the bulk of your titles,
paragraphs, images, and forms will go in your website. The
content section is known as the biggest part of the page.
The sidebar section: sidebar sections are responsible for
showing visitors additional navigation, and filtering options
depending on what the site requires.
A footer section: the footer is at the very bottom of your
website and normally should include your contact
information, logo, and some navigation. You should also
include links to any important legal information you need to
include with your website like a privacy policy or terms &
conditions.
USING SEARCH ENGINE

A search engine is a web-based tool that help


users to locate information on the WORLD WEB
WIDE(www). They search the world wide web in
a systematic way for a particular information
specifically ask my the user.Examples; GOOGLE
CHROME, BING, YAHOO.
THE SEARCH ENGINE INDEX: The search engine index
are web pages that have been discovered by the
search engine and are added into a data
structure.The index take notes of key signals of
contents such as:
● Keywords
● The relevance of the contents
● The freshness of the page
● The previous user engagement
UNDERSTANDING URLs
Every time you click a link on a website or type a web
address into your browser, it’s a URL. URL stands for Uniform
Resource Locator. Think of it like a street address, with each
portion of the URL as different parts of the address, and each
giving you different information.
SCHEME: Every URL begins with the scheme. This tells your
browser what type of address it is so the browser connects
to it correctly. There are many types of schemes, but for
typical web browsing you will mostly see http and https. you
don’t need to type the scheme when typing a web address;
instead, you can just begin with the domain name.
DOMAIN NAME: The domain name is the most
prominent part of a web address. Typically, different
pages on the same site will continue to use the same
domain name. E.g, http://www.digigirls.org

Domain name
FILE PATH: The file path—often just called the path—
tells your browser to load a specific page. If you don’t
specify a path and only enter a domain name, your
browser is still loading a specific page; it’s just loading
a default page, which usually will help you navigate to
other pages.
http://www.digigirls.org/reading/grammar
PARAMETER: Some URLs include a string of characters
after the path—beginning with a question mark—called
the parameter string. You have probably noticed this
part of a URL appear in your address bar after
performing a search on Google or YouTube. The
parameter string can be clear or confusing to a human
user, but it is critical information for the server.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw5w6WgXcQ

PARAMETER
ANCHOR: Also appearing after the path, the anchor
tells your browser to scroll to or load a specific part
of the page. Usually the anchor begins with a
hashtag and is used to direct your browser to a
specific part of a very long page, much like a
bookmark. Different anchors don’t load different
pages; they simply tell the browser to display
different parts of the page.

wireless router. This is the device that will broadcast
the Wi-Fi signal from your Internet modem throughout
your house.Some Internet modems may already have
a built-in wireless router, which means you won't need
to purchase a separate one
HOW TO SET UP A WI-FI NETWORK
CONNECT THE CABLE:
● Connect the router to your existing Internet modem.
● Connect an Ethernet cable from your modem to the
wireless router (there is usually a short Ethernet cable
included with your wireless router for this purpose)
● Plug in the power cable for the wireless router.

● Wait at least 30 to 60 seconds, and make sure the


lights on your router are working correctly.
CONFIGURE YOUR ROUTER
Use your computer to configure your router's default
settings. This includes setting a unique name and
password for your wireless network.
● Using your web browser, enter the router's
default IP address into the address bar,
then press Enter. Your router's instructions
should include this information, but some
of the most common addresses include
192.168.0.1, 192.168.1.1, and 192.168.2.1.
• The router's sign-in page will appear,
most routers use a standard user name
and password combination, such as
admin and password.

• Your router's settings page will appear.


Locate and select the Network Name
setting, then enter a unique network
name
● Locate and select the Network Password setting, and
choose an Encryption option. There are several types of
encryption you can use, but we recommend WPA2,
which is generally considered to be the most secure
● Enter your desired password. Make sure to use a
strong password to help ensure no one else can
access your network.

● Locate and select the Save button to save your


settings.
CONNECT
Now you're ready to connect to your Wi-Fi network and make
sure it's working. The process for connecting to a Wi-Fi network
will vary slightly depending on what type of computer or
device you're using, but any system will require these basic
steps;
● Locate your computer's network settings, and search
for nearby Wi-Fi networks.

● Select your network and enter your password

● If your connection is successful, open your web


browser and try navigation to a webpage, if the page
loads it means your wi-fi connection is successful
CHOOSING A WEB BROWSER

A web browser is a type of software that allows you to find and


view websites on the Internet.
It's always a good idea to keep at least two web browsers on
your computer or mobile device. This way, if a website isn't
working correctly you can try opening the page in a different
web browser.
CHOOSING A WEB BROWSER
The best browser depends on the kind of device you're using,
using a PC or ANDROID Google Chrome is probably the best
web browser right now for PCs. It's free to download, it's very
fast, and it's secure. Chrome is also the default web browser for
many Android devices.
Using an iphone,ipad or Mac Safari is the default web browser
for Mac computers and iOS devices, including the iPhone and
iPad
OTHER RECOMMENDED WEB BROWSER

Firefox: This free web browser from Mozilla works on


Windows, Mac, and Android.
Opera: Originally released in 1994, the Opera web browser
has been around much longer than Firefox and Chrome.
INSTALLING AND UPDATING PLUGINS
Plug-ins are small applications that allow you to view certain
types of content within your web browser. Common plug-ins
include Adobe Reader, which lets you view PDF files in your
browser; and Microsoft Silverlight, which is often required for
video sites like Netflix.You might also be familiar with some
older plug-ins, such as Adobe Flash Player, Java, and
QuickTime.
INSTALLING AND UPDATING PLUGINS

Note: If you're using a mobile device instead of a laptop


or desktop, you won't need to worry about updating
your plug-ins manually.
HOW TO INSTALL OR UPDATE A PLUG-IN

To do this, go to a search engine like Google, then search


for update or install [your plug-in name here]. e.g search
for update adobe flash player. In most cases, you'll find the
correct page at the very top of the search results.
Locate and select the Download or Install button. Some
plug-ins may also try to install additional software, so be
sure to deselect any offers like this. Locate and double-click
the installation file (it will usually be in your Downloads
folder).

Note that you'll need to close your web browser before you
can install a plug-in.
Follow the instructions that appear. The plug-in will be
updated to the most recent version.
In many cases, your browser will open automatically to a
new page, confirming the installation. This means the
plug-in is ready to use whenever you need it.

PROTECTING
YOUR ONLINE
PRIVACY
• Understanding
browser tracking
• Example of when
a website might
track your online
Content activity
• How cookies work
• How to avoid
cookies
UNDERSTANDING BROWSER TRACKING

When internet is used a record of visited websites are


recorded along with everything that was click. To track this
information many websites save some piece of data, which is
known as a cookie to your web browser, in addition to cookies
many browsers use people’s users account to track browsing
activities.
UNDERSTANDING BROWSER TRACKING

It’s important to understand how your online data is tracked


and used.
There are many reasons a website might track your browsing
activity. In some cases, it's simply to make your browsing
experience faster and more convenient. But this data can also
be used to determine your browsing habits and preferences.
Examples of when a website might
track your online activity.

● Video sites like YouTube and Netflix collect


information on the videos you watch, which helps
them suggest more videos you might like.

● Online stores like Amazon and eBay keep a record


of the different items you view and purchase, which
helps them suggest other products you may want to
buy.
Examples of when a website might
track your online activity.

Search engines like Google keep a record of the things you


search for. This can help them suggest more relevant
searches, but it can also be used for advertising purposes.
HOW COOKIES WORK

Cookies store specific information on the websites you visit


and the things you click on different sites. If you don't have
an account on a particular site, this information is typically
saved in a cookie to your web browser.
For example, a news website might use cookies to see if
you've previously visited its site—and what articles you read
on your last visit—so it can suggest more articles based on
your previous choices.
HOW TO AVOID COOKIE
There are a few different ways to avoid cookie tracking.
Some websites actually give you the option to disable
cookie tracking on their site, although this may also disable
certain site features.
If you want to opt out of cookies entirely, you could try
enabling the Do Not Track setting in your browser. Most web
browsers disable this feature by default, but it can usually
be activated from the privacy settings.
HOW TO AVOID COOKIE

Do Not Track program is voluntary, so some sites may not


honor this request. If you'd prefer to avoid cookies
altogether, you could use a private browsing mode
whenever you go online. This will prevent any cookies from
being saved to your web browser.

You may want to group multiple objects into one object


so they will stay together. This is usually easier than
selecting them individually, and it also allows you to
resize and move all of the objects at the same time.
TO GROUP OBJECTS:
● Hold the Shift (or Ctrl) key and click the objects
you want to group.
● Click the Group command on the Format tab,
then select Group.
● The selected objects will now be grouped. There
will be a single box with sizing handles around
the entire group so you can move or resize all of
the objects at the same time.
ORDERING OBJECTS

In addition to aligning objects, Word gives you the ability


to arrange objects in a specific order. The ordering is
important when two or more objects overlap because it
determines which objects are in the front or the back.
Objects are placed on different levels according to the
order in which they were inserted into a document.
TO CHANGE OBJECT LEVEL:
● Objects are placed on different levels according to the
order in which they were inserted into a document.
● From the Format tab, click the Bring Forward or Send
Backward command to change the object's ordering
by one level

Number formats tell your spreadsheet exactly
what type of data you're using, like percentages
(%), currency ($), times, dates, and so
on.Number formats not only make your
spreadsheet easier to read, but they also make it
easier to use. When you apply a number format,
you're telling your spreadsheet exactly what
types of values are stored in a cell

INTRODUCTION TO FORMULAS

MATHEMATICAL OPERATORS: Excel uses standard


operators for formulas: a plus sign for addition (+), minus
sign for subtraction (-), asterisk for multiplication (*),
forward slash for division (/), and caret (^) for exponents.
All formulas in Excel must begin with an equals sign (=).
This is because the cell contains, or is equal to, the
formula and the value it calculates.
UNDERSTANDING CELL REFERENCE

While you can create simple formulas in Excel using


numbers (for example, =2+2 or =5*5), most of the time
you will use cell addresses to create a formula. This is
known as making a cell reference. Using cell references
will ensure that your formulas are always accurate
because you can change the value of referenced cells
without having to rewrite the formula.
● Cell A3 adds the values of cells A1 and A2 by making
cell references:
● When you press Enter, the formula calculates and
displays the answer in cell A3
● If the values in the referenced cells change, the
formula automatically recalculates:
By combining a mathematical operator with cell
references, you can create a variety of simple formulas
in Excel.
TO CREATE A FORMULA
● Select the cell that will contain the formula.
● Type the equals sign (=). Notice how it appears in
both the cell and the formula bar.
● Type the cell address of the cell you want to reference
first in the formula:
● Type the mathematical operator you want to use.
● Type the cell address of the cell you want to reference
second in the formula.
● Press Enter on your keyboard. The formula will be
calculated, and the value will be displayed in the cell.
If the result of a formula is too large to be displayed in a
cell, it may appear as pound signs (###) instead of a
value. This means the column is not wide enough to
display the cell content. Simply increase the column
width to show the cell content.
TO CREATE A FORMULA USING POINT AND
CLICK METHOD

Instead of typing cell addresses manually, you


can point and click the cells you want to include
in your formula. This method can save a lot of
time and effort when creating formulas.
● Select the cell that will contain the formula.
● Type the equals sign (=).
● Select the cell you want to reference first in
the formula.
● Type the mathematical operator you want to
use.
● Select the cell you want to reference second
in the formula.
● Press Enter on your keyboard. The formula will
be calculated, and the value will be displayed
in the cell.
TO EDIT A FORMULA
● Select the cell containing the formula you
want to edit.
● Click the formula bar to edit the formula. You
can also double-click the cell to view and
edit the formula directly within the cell.
● A border will appear around any referenced
cells
● When you're finished, press Enter on your
keyboard or select the Enter command in the
formula bar.
TO EDIT A FORMULA

● The formula will be updated, and the new


value will be displayed in the cell.
If you change your mind, you can press the Esc
key on your keyboard or click the Cancel
command in the formula bar to avoid
accidentally making changes to your formula.
RELATIVE AND ABSOLUTE CELL
REFERENCES
There are two types of cell references: relative
and absolute. Relative and absolute references
behave differently when copied and filled to
other cells. Relative references change when a
formula is copied to another cell. Absolute
references, on the other hand, remain constant
no matter where they are copied.
RELATIVE AND ABSOLUTE CELL
REFERENCES

RELATIVE REFERENCES: By default, all cell


references are relative references. When copied
across multiple cells, they change based on the
relative position of rows and columns
TO CREATE AND COPY A FORMULA
USING RELATIVE REFERENCES
● Select the cell that will contain the formula.
● Enter the formula to calculate the desired
value.
● Press Enter on your keyboard. The formula
will be calculated, and the result will be
displayed in the cell.
● Locate the fill handle in the bottom-right
corner of the desired cell.
● Click and drag the fill handle over the cells
you want to fill.
● Release the mouse. The formula will be
copied to the selected cells with relative
references, displaying the result in each cell.
You can double-click the filled cells to check
their formulas for accuracy. The relative cell
references should be different for each cell,
depending on their rows.
ABSOLUTE REFERENCE

There may be a time when you don't want a cell


reference to change when copied to other cells.
Unlike relative references, absolute references
do not change when copied or filled. You can
use an absolute reference to keep a row and/or
column constant.
An absolute reference is designated in a formula
by the addition of a dollar sign ($). It can
precede the column reference, the row
reference, or both.
CREATE AND COPY A FORMULA
USING ABSOLUTE REFERENCE
● Select the cell that will contain the formula.
● Enter the formula to calculate the desired value.
● Press Enter on your keyboard. The formula will
calculate, and the result will display in the cell.
● Locate the fill handle in the bottom-right corner of
the desired cell.
● Click and drag the fill handle over the cells you
want to fill.
CREATE AND COPY A FORMULA
USING ABSOLUTE REFERENCE
● Release the mouse. The formula will be copied to
the selected cells with an absolute reference, and
the values will be calculated in each cell.
You can double-click the filled cells to check their
formulas for accuracy. The absolute reference should
be the same for each cell, while the other references
are relative to the cell's row.
BASICS TIPS FOR WORKING WITH DATA
Excel workbooks are designed to store a lot of
information. Whether you're working with 20 cells
or 20,000, Excel has several features to help you
organize your data and find what you need.
FREEZING ROWS AND COLUMNS
You may want to see certain rows or columns all
the time in your worksheet, especially header
cells. By freezing rows or columns in place, you'll
be able to scroll through your content while
continuing to view the frozen cells.
BASICS TIPS FOR WORKING WITH DATA

SORTING DATA:
You can quickly reorganize a worksheet by
sorting your data. Content can be sorted
alphabetically and numerically
FILTERING DATA

Filters can be used to narrow down the data in


your worksheet, allowing you to view only the
information you need.
SUMMARIZING DATA: The Subtotal command
allows you to quickly summarize data.
FILTERING DATA

USING FIND AND REPLACE: When working


with a lot of data, it can be difficult and time
consuming to locate specific information. You
can easily search your workbook using the FIND
FEATURE,which also allows you to modify content
using the Replace feature.
FREEZE PANE AND VIEW OPTION

TO FREEZE ROW: You may want to see certain


rows or columns all the time in your worksheet,
especially header cells. By freezing rows or
columns in place, you'll be able to scroll through
your content while continuing to view the frozen
cells.
● Select the row below the row(s) you want to
freeze. E.g we want to freeze rows 1 and 2, so
we'll select row 3.
● On the View tab, select the Freeze Panes
command, then choose Freeze Panes from
the drop-down menu.
● The rows will be frozen in place, as indicated
by the gray line. You can scroll down the
worksheet while continuing to view the frozen
rows at the top.
TO FREEZE COLUMN
● Select the column to the right of the
column(s) you want to freeze.Example, we
want to freeze column A, so we'll select
column B.
● On the View tab, select the Freeze Panes
command, then choose Freeze Panes from
the drop-down menu.
● The column will be frozen in place, as
indicated by the gray line. You can scroll
across the worksheet while continuing to
view the frozen column on the left.
● If you only need to freeze the top row (row 1)
or first column (column A) in the worksheet,
you can simply select Freeze Top Row or
Freeze First Column from the drop-down
menu.
OTHER VIEW OPTION
If your workbook contains a lot of content, it can
sometimes be difficult to compare different
sections. Excel includes additional options to
make your workbooks easier to view and
compare. For example, you can choose to open
a new window for your workbook or split a
worksheet into separate panes.
Excel allows you to open multiple windows for a
single workbook at the same time.
TO OPEN A NEW WINDOW FOR THE CURRENT
WORKBOOK:
● Click the View tab on the Ribbon, then select the New
Window command.
● A new window for the workbook will appear.
● You can now compare different worksheets from the
same workbook across windows
If you have several windows open at the same time, you can
use the Arrange All command to rearrange them quickly
TYPES OF SORTING

When sorting data, it's important to first decide if


you want the sort to apply to the entire worksheet or
just a cell range. Sort sheet organizes all of the data
in your worksheet by one column. Related
information across each row is kept together when
the sort is applied. Sort range sorts the data in a
range of cells, which can be helpful when working
with a sheet that contains several tables. Sorting a
range will not affect other content in the worksheet.
TO SORT SHEET:
● Select a cell in the column you want to sort
● Select the Data tab on the Ribbon, then click the
A-Z command to sort A to Z, or the Z-A
command to sort Z to A.
● The worksheet will be sorted by the selected
column
TO SORT RANGE:
● Select the cell range you want to sort. E.g we'll select
cell range G2:H6.
● Select the Data tab on the Ribbon, then click the Sort
command.
● The Sort dialog box will appear. Choose the column
you want to sort.
● Decide the sorting order (either ascending or
descending).
● Once you're satisfied with your selection, click OK.
● The cell range will be sorted by the selected column.
TO FILTER DATA

● In other for filtering to work perfectly, your


worksheet should a header row which is use
to identify the name of each column.
● Select the Data tab, then click the Filter
command.
● A drop-down arrow will appear in the
header cell for each column.
● Click the drop-down arrow for the column
you want to filter
TO FILTER DATA

● The Filter menu will appear.


● Uncheck the box next to Select All to quickly
deselect all data.
● Check the boxes next to the data you want to
filter, then click OK.
● The data will be filtered, temporarily hiding
any content that doesn't match the criteria.
GROUPS AND SUBTOTALS

TO GROUP ROWS AND COLUMNS:


● Select the rows or columns you want to group. E.g select
columns B, C, and D
● Select the Data tab on the Ribbon, then click the Group
command.
● The selected rows or columns will be grouped.
To ungroup data, select the grouped rows or columns, then
click the Ungroup command.
CREATING SUBTOTALS
The Subtotal command allows you to automatically create
groups and use common functions like SUM, COUNT, and
AVERAGE to help summarize your data.

TO CREATE A SUBTOTAL:
● First, sort your worksheet by the data you want to
subtotal
● Select the Data tab, then click the Subtotal command.
TO CREATE A SUBTOTAL:
● The Subtotal dialog box will appear. Click the drop-
down arrow for the At each change in: field to select
the column you want to subtotal.
● Click the drop-down arrow for the Use function: field to
select the function you want to use. E.g select COUNT to
count the number of items in your sheet.
● In the Add subtotal to: field, select the column where
you want the calculated subtotal to appear.
TO REMOVE SUBTOTAL

Sometimes you may not want to keep subtotals


in your worksheet, especially if you want to
reorganize data in different ways. If you no
longer want to use subtotaling, you will need
remove it from your worksheet.
● Select the Data tab, then click the Subtotal
command
● The Subtotal dialog box will appear. Click
Remove All.
TO REMOVE SUBTOTAL

● All worksheet data will be ungrouped,


and the subtotals will be removed.

To remove all groups without deleting the


subtotals, click the Ungroup command drop-
down arrow, then choose Clear Outline.
TO VIEW GROUPS BY LEVEL

When you create subtotals, your worksheet it is


divided into different levels. You can switch
among these levels to quickly control how much
information is displayed in the worksheet by
clicking the Level buttons to the left of the
worksheet.
TO VIEW GROUPS BY LEVEL

● Click the lowest level to display the least


detail.
● Click the next level to expand the detail.
● Click the highest level to view and expand all
of your worksheet data.
You can also use the Show Detail and Hide Detail
buttons to show and hide the groups within the
outline.
TO FORMAT DATA AS A TABLE:
● Select the cells you want to format as a
table. In our example, we'll select the cell
range A2:D9
● From the Home tab, click the Format as Table
command in the Styles group.
● Select a table style from the drop-down
menu.
TO FORMAT DATA AS A TABLE:
● A dialog box will appear, confirming the
selected cell range for the table.
● If your table has headers, check the box next
to My table has headers, then click OK.
● The cell range will be formatted in the
selected table style.
CHARTS

It can be difficult to interpret Excel workbooks


that contain a lot of data. Charts allow you to
illustrate your workbook data graphically.
It can be difficult to interpret Excel workbooks
that contain a lot of data. Charts allow you to
illustrate your workbook data graphically,
TYPES OF CHARTS
● Column bars use vertical bars to represent data
● LINE charts are good for showing trends
● PIE charts makes it easy to compare proportion
● BAR charts use horizontal bars to represent data
● AREA charts are similar to LINE charts except that
the areas under the are filled in.
● SURFACE Charts allow you to display data across
a 3D landscape
,
6 TO INSERT A CHART
● Select the cells you want to chart, including the column
titles and row labels. These cells will be the source data for
the chart.
● From the Insert tab, click the desired Chart command
● Choose the desired chart type from the drop-down menu.
● The Selected chart will be inserted into the worksheet.
If you're not sure which type of chart to use, the Recommended
Charts command will suggest several charts based on the
source data.
CONDITIONAL FORMATTING
Conditional formatting allows you to automatically
apply formatting such as colors, icons, and data bars,
to one or more cells based on the cell value. To do this,
you'll need to create a conditional formatting rule. For
example, a conditional formatting rule might be: If the
value is less than 2000, color the cell red. By applying
this rule, you'd be able to quickly see which cells contain
values less than 2000.
TO CREATE A CONDITIONAL
FORMATTING RULE
● Select the desired cells for the conditional formatting rule.
● From the Home tab, click the Conditional Formatting
command. A drop-down menu will appear.
● Hover the mouse over the desired conditional formatting
type, then select the desired rule from the menu that
appears.

Paragraph: Indenting the first line of a paragraph
using the Tab key creates a first-line indent. This
helps to separate paragraphs from each other.
List: Indenting a line of a list creates a multilevel list.
This means the indented line is a subtopic of the line
above it. Multilevel lists are useful if you want to
create an outline or hierarchy.
ADJUSTING INDENTS

INTRODUCTION

Collaborative work is about people working together to


achieve a common goal. This is facilitated by the
development of new technologies. Collaborative work
remained fairly simple.

There are a lot of collaborations tools that are used for

● Content Creation
● Project Management
● Content sharing and Document Management
There are a lot of collaborations tools that are used for

● Content Creation
● Project Management
● Content sharing and Document Management
● Corporate Social Network.
● Contact Management.
● Team Communication
ADVANTAGES OF COLLABORATION
Flexibility: Companies and employees are more
flexible. The technologies that support collaboration
make it possible to easily communicate and exchange
information no matter the place or time.

Mobility: Most companies implement project teams


that do not work in the same place or even at the
same time;. In-person meetings are replaced by video
conferences. This type of meeting reduces costs by
limiting travel costs
Skills and motivation: Companies project teams can work
with the most competent people of their choices because
technology compensates for the geographical separation.

document sharing: Teams save time by sharing documents


over a secure platform; and versioning ensure everyone is
working on the latest version of a document - this help work
not to be repeated.

Increased productivity: Collaborators tend to be more


efficient when the companies they work for use modern
collaboration tools.
DISADVANTAGE

Security: Data shared with too many collaborators can


prove to be a threat. Sensitive business data must remain
under control and cannot be disclosed outside the
organization. Customer information, company figures and
tariffs are examples of data that need to be protected.

Work-life balance: Another potential issue is people


overworking and blurring the lines between their personal
time and work hours.
DISADVANTAGE

Productivity: The loss of human touch can be detrimental


if taken to an extreme. Productivity is lost If everything
needs to be entered into a system
TYPES OF COLLABORATION TOOLS

Decision-making tools help organize ideas in graphic


form.

There are many tools that organizations can acquire to


assist with collaboration. Google offers document sharing
with Google Docs and allows employees to chat and
communicate via Google hangout. Microsoft offers
outlook messaging for emails, Skype conversations, and a
space for sharing OneDrive documents.
Calendar sharing tools: The shared calendar
facilitates organization’s appointments and meetings
without the need to consult all participants. Types of
Calendar tool;

Shared files can be; software, books, videos,
documents, etc. Types of file sharing tools.
● Citrix ShareFile.
● Dropbox.
● Google Drive.
● iCloud Drive.
● Microsoft OneDrive.
Document synchronization: Document synchronization
aims at matching two documents. This means that any
modification, addition or deletion of a document in a
directory will also be effective in the second directory. This
way, employees have the latest version and the
information remains the same everywhere. The two
documents remain exactly identical.

Different software for Document Sync;

● OneDrive
● Google Drive
● Goodsync
Video-conferencing: A method of communicating with a
live, visual connection by means of a video with multiple
people across multiple locations. In-person meetings can
be replaced with video conferences so the team can still
get the “feeling” of seeing each other as they
communicate.
Example;

● Zoom
● Google Meet
● Streamyard
● Google hangout
